District Adopts SEL Program, Spends $35K on ‘7 Mindsets’
The district’s 2026-2027 goals officially commit to a ‘comprehensive, evidence-based student wellness program’ using ‘universal, explicit instruction’—code for Social Emotional Learning (SEL). The bills list confirms a $35,000 payment to ‘7 Mindsets Academy,’ a known SEL vendor, to implement this in the classroom.
Recommended Action Plan
PACK THE ROOM: This is a full-scale SEL implementation disguised as ‘wellness.’ Email the Board at boardmembers@wallpublicschools.org and Superintendent Dr. David Bleakley at officeofsuperintendent@wallpublicschools.org: ‘I demand Item 16.E and the $35,000 payment to 7 Mindsets in Item 17.E be pulled from the Consent Agenda. We will not accept social-emotional engineering replacing academics.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $35,000.00

Curriculum Policy Embeds K-12 ‘Diversity and Inclusion’
The Board is voting on revised Policy 2200, which formally adopts state mandates requiring ‘instruction on diversity and inclusion’ for all students from Kindergarten through 12th grade. The policy also mandates instruction on the ‘political, economic, and social contributions’ of LGBT people for middle and high school students.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: This policy opens the door for radical gender and race ideology in every classroom. Email Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum & Instruction Jennifer McCann at jmccann@wallpublicschools.org: ‘Regarding Policy 2200, which specific curriculum materials will be used to teach K-12 Diversity and Inclusion? Parents have a right to review these materials before this policy is approved.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Academics Replaced by Ideology

Over $200K in Contracts for Data-Mining and Mental Health
The bills list includes over $212,000 in payments to vendors that raise significant privacy and parental rights concerns. The district is paying $159,162 to Curriculum Associates (i-Ready), known for student data collection, and $53,050 to Rutgers for school-based psychiatric services.
Recommended Action Plan
DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Email the Board at boardmembers@wallpublicschools.org: ‘Pull the payments to Curriculum Associates and Rutgers from the Consent Agenda (Item 17.E). What student data is being collected by i-Ready, and what are the parental consent protocols for school-based psychiatric services?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: $212,212.80

District Hires Lobbying Group to Shape Strategic Plan
Item 16.G approves hiring the New Jersey School Boards Association (NJSBA) to facilitate the district’s ‘Strategic Plan.’ The NJSBA is a political lobbying group that often promotes progressive educational policies, and now they will be shaping this district’s long-term vision.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The agenda does not include the contract or cost for this service. Email Business Administrator Brian Smyth at bsmyth@wallpublicschools.org: ‘Regarding Item 16.G, please provide the full contract and cost for the NJSBA’s services. Why is a political lobbying group being paid to shape our district’s strategy?’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed (Lobbyist Influence)

Vague Teacher Evaluation Model Approved
Item 16.W approves the ‘Marzano Focused Teacher Model’ for teacher evaluations for the upcoming school year. While Marzano can be a neutral framework, some versions incorporate ideological metrics, such as evaluating teachers on their delivery of SEL or ‘culturally responsive’ teaching.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: Open the file attached in the Official Agenda (linked above) to confirm whether it contains sensitive policy changes. Email Director of Human Resources Michael Scarano (contact info on district website): ‘Regarding Item 16.W, please provide the specific rubric that will be used to evaluate teachers under the Marzano model.’
💰 Taxpayer Impact: Ideological Teacher Evaluations

| Major Win (LEVEL 8) |
|
WIN: District Bans Student Cell Phones During School Day
The Board is adopting revised Policy 5516, which prohibits student use of personal internet-enabled devices like smartphones ‘bell-to-bell’ during the school day. This is a major victory for restoring academic focus in the classroom and reducing distractions and cyberbullying.
How to Lock It In
SECURE THE WIN: Show up to thank the Board for passing Policy 5516. Email the Board at boardmembers@wallpublicschools.org: ‘Thank you for prioritizing education and student well-being by removing personal cell phones from the classroom. We fully support Policy 5516.’ This public support makes it harder to reverse later.
✅ Why It Matters: Restored Academic Focus
